Sega Genesis platformer Sonic & Knuckles already up and running on Sony's PS Vita

Yes, you read that headline correctly.

Classic Sega Genesis platformer Sonic & Knuckles is already up and running on the recently released PS Vita via an emulator.

Don't get too excited just yet, though, as Sony's latest handheld hasn't been cracked. Sega's famous jet-heeled protagonist is simply running through the Vita's official PSP emulator using the PicoDrive emulator and the Half Byte Loader. Whatever that may be.

Farther downhill

To further dampen your delight, Wololo, the creator of the video below this article, has pointed out that Sony already has security in place to thwart this exploit as soon as it's made public.

Bummer.

Still, it's a start. If you're after more retro goodness, you can head on over to Wololo's YouTube channel to see id's seminal shooter Doom running on the shiny new handheld.
